Re: beaterX project thread

More communication is better, Murlo. A quick email/IM/phone call earlier in the day before you head over (I usually swing by after work or over lunch) makes worlds of difference. They're expecting you, keeping you on their radar, etc.

Next steps: autoX (driver mod!), another drag event (let's get this thing into the 12's!), tuning time (power), miles (I have over 1000 miles on the new clutch already!), and enjoyment!

If I come up with some cash I'll look into doing an o2 downpipe (kinda want the MAP recirc'd) and one of their rev 2 exhaust manifolds. This should really help with the midrange and peak power throughout the powerband and start to make the most of this turbo.

That's honestly it for the scope of projects I had in mind with this car. I have some life and myself to focus on for a while, as well as helping other people with their cars, so the X will just be old faithful (hopefully!). We'll see where I end up after the above projects are done and go from there, one step at a time, no need to rush.
